How to quickly transpose 3d array?

Dear all:
I just run into a strange problem. I have a 3d array, say, 400(page) x 55(rows) x 512(columns), and I would like to transpose it to 55(pages) x 512(rows) x 400(columns). I used the code as attached to this message. The speed is too slow. It takes more than 1.5 minutes in my machine. Can someone modify my code or give me some suggestion how to increase the speed? Thank you very much for your help.

Hi ccyang,
your code was unnecesarily slow.
And it was exponential (the more elements, the slower it got) because you resized the array at every for-loop iteration.
On a 40x40x40 array your solution is 6 times slower, at 80x80x80 it is 12.
Here's my solution:

How to quickly clear an array used in a shift register?

Hello all,
I'm sure this is a quick one, but I'm missing the concept.
I have an array of boolean in a shift register. I have a case where I need to basically 'reset' the array rather than append to it....what is the best way to do this?
Thank you,
cayenne
Solved!

Yup, disable debugging and you will see that the inner FOR loop is folded in both cases and the time drops to about zero.
Testing with debugging enabled is potentially unfair, because the reshaping will have more debugging code because there are more potential places to probe a wire, for example. All that said, I don't really know what's more efficient. That would require much more sophisticated testing. My point was just a reminder that there are always many ways to do things.
(This is under LabVIEW 2012. Constant folding and dead code elimination of course differ between compiler versions)
Granted, I typically don't use any of these two versions: I also omit the diagram constant, set the tunnel to "use default if unwired" and keep in unwired in the "clear" case. Less diagram clutter and quicker coding.
Here's how it would look like.

How to ask for an array and how to save the values

I'm supposed to be learning the differences between a linear search and a binary search, and the assignment is to have a user input an array and search through the array for a given number using both searches. My problem is that I know how to ask them how long they want their array to be, but I don't know how to call the getArray() method to actually ask for the contents of the array.
My code is as follows:
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Main
    private static Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    public static void main (String args[])
        //creates ArrayList
        int List[];
        System.out.println("How long would you like the array to be?");
        int arrayLength = input.nextInt();
        //Initializes array list
        List = new int [arrayLength];
        System.out.println("Please enter the first value of the array");
    public static void getArray(int List[], int arrayLength)
        for(int i=0; i < arrayLength; i++) {
             System.out.println("Enter the next value for array");
             List[i] = input.nextInt();
     public static void printArray(int List[])
         for(int i=0; i < List.length; i++)
             System.out.print(List[i] + " ");
public class search
    public static int binarySearch(int anArray[], int first, int last, int value)
        int index;
        if(first > last) {
            index = -1;
        else {
            int mid = (first + last)/2;
            if(value == anArray[mid]) {
                index = mid; //value found at anArray[mid]
            else if(value < anArray[mid]) {
                //point X
                index = binarySearch(anArray, first, mid-1, value);
            else {
                //point Y
                index = binarySearch(anArray, mid+1, last, value);
            } //end if
        } //end if
        return index;
    //Iterative linear search
    public int linearSearch(int a[], int valueToFind)
        //valueToFind is the number that will be found
        //The function returns the position of the value if found
        //The function returns -1 if valueToFind was not found
        for (int i=0; i<a.length; i++) {
            if (valueToFind == a) {
return i;
return -1;

I made the changes. Two more questions.
1.) Just for curiosity, how would I have referenced those methods (called them)?
2.) How do I call the searches?
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Main
    private static Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    public static void main (String args[])
        //creates ArrayList
        int List[];
        System.out.println("How many values would you like the array to have?");
        int arrayLength = input.nextInt();
        //Initializes array list
        List = new int [arrayLength];
        //Collects the array information
        for(int i=0; i < arrayLength; i++) {
             System.out.println("Enter a value for array");
             List[i] = input.nextInt();
        //Prints the array
        System.out.print("Array: ");
        for(int i=0; i < List.length; i++)
             System.out.print(List[i] + " ");
        //Asks for the value to be searched for
        System.out.println("What value would you like to search for?");
        int temp = input.nextInt();
        System.out.println(search.binarySearch()); //not working
}

How can I convert an array off byte into an Object ?

Hi folks...
I�m developing an application that comunicates a PDA and a computer via Wi-Fi. I�m using a DataStream ( Input and Output ) to receive / send information from / to the computer. Most off the data received from him is in the byte[] type...
How can I convert an array off byte ( byte[] ) into an Object using MIDP 2.0 / CLDC 1.1 ?
I found on the web 2 functions that made this... but it uses a ObjectOutputStream and ObjectInputStream classes that is not provided by the J2ME plataform...
How can I do this ?
Waiting answers
Rodrigo Kerkhoff

There are no ObjectOutputStream and ObjectInputStream classes in CLDC. You must know what you are writing to and reading from the DataStream. You should write the primitives like int, String to the DataOutputstream at one end and read those in exactly the same sequence at the outher end using readInt(), readUTF() methods.

How do I convert an array of BYTES (where each BYTE represents a bit) into a single Hex number?

I am reading a signal from a USB-8451. This signal is stored as an array where each element represents a bit in the signal, but is stored in the array as a byte. How do I convert this array into a single Hex number. I attatched what I have so far, there are a few extra things to help me see what ia going on. One code uses Queue and the other uses arrays, let me know if you can help.

Trithfully I don't really know how I2C devices work, but my mentor here says that we can't use an I2C method becuase it will introduce voltage into the circuit and may damage out TCON chip.
That makes absolutely no sense. What do you think is happening when you write the digital lines? You're setting a pin high. That voltage is being generated by the 8451x. I think you're not understanding what your mentor is saying. If it's an I2C device then you should be able to use the I2C function to simply talk to it. You still have not indicated what the device is, so there's little more I can say about that aspect of it.
As far as the conversion is concerned, you basically need loop through your array of "bits", taking 16 at time since you said you have 16-bit values. It's not clear from your code whether your eventual goal is to get a numeric value or a string. This does not appear to be a subVI, so a simply numeric indicator formatted to display in hex format should be quite adequate. The array you are generating is an array of rings, whose datatype is I32, but they will have values of 0 or 1. You can use the example just posted, or you can use the attached variation.

How do you create an array without using a shell on the FP?

I want to be able to read the status of front panel controls (value, control box selection, etc.) and save it to a file, as a "configuration" file -- then be able to load it and have all the controls set to the same states as were saved in the file. I was thinking an array would be a way to do this, as I have done that in VB. (Saving it as a text file, then reading lines back into the array when the file is read and point the control(s) values/states to the corresponding array element.
So how do I create an array of X dimensions without using a shell on the front panel? Or can someone suggest a better way to accomplish what I am after? (Datalogging doesn't allow for saving the status by a filename, so I
do not want to go that route.)

Thanks so much m3nth! This definitely looks like what I was wanting... just not really knowing how to get there.
I'm not sure I follow all the icons. Is that an array (top left with 0 constant) in the top example? And if so, that gets back to part of my original question of how to create an array without using a shell on the FP. Do I follow your diagram correctly?
If I seem a tad green... well I am.
I hope you understand the LabVIEW environment and icons are still very new to me.
Also, I had a response from an NI app. engineer about this problem. He sent me a couple of VI's that he threw together approaching this by using Keys. (I still think you are pointing to the best solution.) I assume he wouldn't mind m
e posting his reply and the VI's for the sake of a good, thorough, Roundtable discussion. So here are his comments with VI's attached:
"I was implementing this exact functionality this morning for an application I'm working on. I only have five controls I want to save, but they are all of different data types. I simply wrote a key for each control, and read back that key on initialization. I simply passed in property node values to the save VI at the end, and passed the values out to property nodes at
the beginning. I've attached my initialize and save VI's for you to view. If you have so many controls that this would not be feasible, you may want to look into clustering the controls and saving the cluster as a datalog file.

How can I use my array in another method.... Or better yet, what's wrong?

I guess I'll show you what I am trying to do rather and then explain it
public class arraycalc
int[] dog;
public void arraycalc()
dog = new int[2];
public void setSize(int size)
dog[1] = size;
public int getSize()
return dog[1];
This gives me a null pointer exception...
How can I use my array from other methods?

You have to make the array static. :)
Although I must admit, this is rather bad usage. What you want to do is use an object constructor to make this class an object type, and then create the array in your main class using this type, and then call the methods from this class to modify your array. Creating the array inside the other method leads to a whole bunch of other stuff that's ... well, bad. :)
Another thing: Because you're creating your array inside this class and you want to call your array from another class, you need to make the array static; to make it static, you must make your methods static. And according to my most ingenious computer science teacher, STATIC METHODS SUCK. :D
So, if you want to stick with your layout, it would look like:
public class arraycalc
     static int[] dog;
     public static void arraycalc()
          dog = new int[2];
     public static void setSize(int size)
          dog[1] = size;
     public static int getSize()
          return dog[1];
}But I must warn you, that is absolutely horrible code, and you shouldn't use it. In fact, I don't even know why I posted it.
You should definitely read up on OOP, as this problem would be better solved by creating a new object type.

How can I create a array with all files from a directory

How can I create a array of files or varchar with all files from a directory?

I thought the example could be improved upon. I've posted a solution on my blog that doesn't require writing the directory list to a table. It simply returns it as a nested table of files as a SQL datatype. You can find it here:

How to load a second array?

I have this code loading a set of thumbnails. Right now the
first set of thumbs loads fine but how to load my second array in a
new row?

Well my first idea would be that somewhere you are out of
scope and therefore you are getting an undefined somewhere in your
code.
So it might be trying to pass "undefined" as your url.
I would start with the debugger and step through the code to
make sure that it is able to get all the values it needs at every
step.
A good understanding of the debugger tool will save you tons
of time.
My next idea would be to split the code up using the command
pattern.
Also, since you only have two arrays, you could put an if
statement before incrementing the arr variable.
example:
if (arr < 2){
arr++;
}

How to access a Access array in flex

Hi
      Guys can any body explain me how to access an array.Actually i am succsufully getting value from array named Dynamic array.
                   DynamicArray[i].language_1[0].translation;
here the node language_1 is not static it may be language_2 or language_3 or language_4 ect.. so i put that getting value in a variable named key
var key:String = 'language_1'; //Suppose i am getting right value here in key
So please guide me how i access my dynamic array using key so that i got same value as previous code give.
i already tried:-DynamicArray[i].key.translation;
                       DynamicArray[i][key].translation;
but every time got error.
for more clarity i put array structure here
DynamicArr= Array (@43b1271)
    [0] = Object (@43ad219)
        contentlanguage_1 = Array (@43b1431)
            [0] = Object (@4417a11)
                choice_id = "0"

                selected = "Y"
                translation = "2_486"
            length = 1
    [1] = Object (@4417949)
please Help me out
Thanks In Advance
   Vineet Osho

Hi Vineet Osho,
You haven't tried ---> DynamicArray[i][key][0].translation; This will work
You tried -> DynamicArray[i][key].translation; (This is wrong as you havent specified on which index you want to access)
If still doesn't work ty this...
Try (DynamicArray[i])[key][0].translation;
If the above one doesn't work then try the below one...
var obj:Object = DynamicArray[i];
var translation:String = obj[key][0].translation;
Thanks,
Bhasker

How do I create an Array of Images

Hi,
I'm creating a program that basically is a slideshow. It has buttons that allow the user to switch from image to image, and has some audio in the background. I was wondering how I might create an array to store the images. I'm very new to Java, so please no detail is too small. I've just started using arrays, so I'm not sure where I would store the files or how to call the images. Please be descriptive and as dumbed down as possible :)
Thanks for the help!

I like ArrayList
ArrayList<BufferedImage> myPics = new ArrayList();then just dump them in with add(myBufferedImage)
If you'e not using BufferedImages then just change the BufferedImage to Image.
to get, say the 6th image back out, then use:
myBufferedImage = myPics.get(5);the index starts at 0 and should be addressed as 0 to (myPics.length - 1)
